The razor I use is just a basic Dovo Best Quality (carbon, not stainless) that Lynn honed. It's a beauty, and I usually only shave once every three days or so because I get pretty close and only have a 5 o'clock shadow after 36 hours.

I just picked up a couple NOS Wapis, so I'm especially interested in figuring out the best relatively cheap way to hone.

Thanks for the advice!
A basic Norton combo set is the cheapest alternative IMO. Just don't use the lapping plate on anything but the 1,4, and 8k. If you want to go for a bit more get the DMT D8C 325 diamond plate and you'll have a bomb proof flattening stone.
